  Problem Description: 
   
  A bug was discovered in KJS where UTF8 decoding did not reject 
  overlong sequences. This vulnerability is similar to that discovered 
  by Andreas Nolden in QT3 and QT4, but at this current time there is 
  no known exploit for this issue. 
   
  Updated packages have been patched to address this issue.
